Forgive Me (Song Of Compassion)

Forgive me
For all the time I've wasted
For all the money that I've squandered
For all the times I've wondered away
Forgive me
For the times when I kept silent of you
When I sat in the corner of a room pretending I didn't hear

Forgive me father for I have sinned in so many ways
And I know that you love me and I love you too
But I've put myself first
More often than you

Forgive me
When I've turned and walked away from someone crying in need
When I've looked away from scenes of children dying in poverty
Forgive me
For doing things with motives that were wrong
And all along all you wanted was for me to sit alone with you
And sing my song

Forgive me father for I have sinned in so many ways
And I know that you love me and I love you too
But I've put myself first
More often than you

Forgive me for the jealousy
Forgive my pride
Forgive me for the bitterness that I have held inside
Forgive me for the judgement of others who aren't free
And all the mean hypocrisy and didn't see in me
I'm sorry
So sorry
I'm sorry
Sorry

For yours is the only opinion
Yours is the only opinion
That matters to me
